i was legitimately confused why i was getting zero replies in very active threads. and yes this is just a whine post about how horribly opaque fediverse moderation is these days
rule 1? rule 2? fuck if I know what I said that broke those rules, here’s a ban that you don’t even get notified about. i probably said fuck too many times. that’s “not respectful”.

That’s the Reddit way.
Shadowbanning you without any notification so you’re unaware as long as possible.

So a bunch of genocidal toddlers excommunicated you for telling them the truth.
That’s a win, friendo.

Wait, how do I check for bans? Because I find it suspicious that I haven’t been banned from anything when that happened regularly on Reddit
Go to the “Modlog” page at the very bottom of the web interface for your instance. You can search moderation tasks by username, such as your own, and it should show removed content.
I’ve found actual instance bans don’t federate reliably though, e.g i cant see any of my lemmy.ml bans on lemmy.one. so you’d have to check the target instances by opening their web page in an incognito or logged-out browser window, and view their modlog directly instead of your home instances’ modlog.
Thanks!
I’ve just seen I had a comment removed from lemmy.ml, for “rule 1” reasons but don’t really see what’s wrong with the comment other than it goes against the political grain of the community (world news).

thats how it do be these days, unfortunately
you’ll never get more explanation than that
You probably said something mean about Daddy Marx, or pointed out one of the many flaws with communism.
They’re a sensitive lot.
Actually yeah. i’ll guarantee that was it. 14 days ago I was making fun of hexbear users defending russia’s war crimes in the memes /c/ of all places… which is weird that they defend it considering russia is very not-communist anymore.
still sucks since many of the largest communities around things like linux and tech are on .ml
Okay can someone please point me to a real, physical, existing example of this happening? I’ve got multiple accounts on multiple instances from when the servers I used were less stable and not once on any of them have I ever seen a single person defended Russia or China politically.
Not trying to be divisive it just comes up a lot and at this point feels like a red scare tactic
They’re campists; they can’t understand any level of moral complexity.
Anyone who opposes the US is inherently good, because surely the west is the only one that can be imperialistic.
I’m kinda not surprised the FOSS community would end up on a communist instance, I’m actually considering just blocking the entire .ML instance at this point.
I’m so sick of seeing them having a tantrum every time YouTube tries to make them either pay for the service, or watch ads.
I have a feeling it was more of “that was the biggest instance when we all got started here so we all just stayed here”. The prime-mover advantage for lemmy.world and lemmy.ml is pretty severe and it still shows in user counts/activity. It’s just gotten more obvious over time what lemmy.ml admins (and by extension the developers of the platform) really support.
You’re in good company. The same thing happened to me and my posts. Also happened to Picard M. We both had our posts removed and is banned for reasons we couldn’t figure out. I ended up making a second account to ask that instance why my posts weren’t able to be seen. Then the same admin (the one who banned us and removed the posts) then contacted us to try to elaborate but has no real answer. Started giving reasons for removal that made no sense within reality, nevermind their insanely vague rules.
The mods and admins are way too inconsistent over there. They do what they want, they don’t enforce. It’s exactly why I outright left lemmy.ml and don’t bother to engage with them anymore. It’s not consistent enough to know what to do and what not to do.
They wanna act like petulant children and throw shit at the walls then they can do so on their own.
The fastest way to handle lemmygrad or hexbear is to just rile them up real good in their communities.
Rather than me banning them, they all ban or block me. Ezpz.
Good thing there are hundreds of other instances. This a solved problem with Lemmy.
No need to even complain about it. You have choice here.
The largest instances are going to be like reddit, yes.
Oh I know theres lots more out there. But I’m uber lazy and like my one comfy account with a specific set of subscribed comfy communities
You‘re not allowed to say anything bad about China or Russia over there. Got banned on a few communities too. The mods over there are pretty petty and enforce the „rules“ as they like.
I’m going to be real with you bro. I’ve come across posts and comments from you before and without reading anything you’ve said here I can guarantee it’s because you had nonsense or uninformed takes on something a mod cared a lot about. Probably global affairs or communism.
No comment on the topic, just your name made me chuckle.
I should be allowed to post my nonsense and uninformed takes however I please and get ridiculed by the community for it, not outright quiet-banned by mods just because they didn’t like me. I’m a big boy, I can take the heat.
You sound like the type of person who goes to concert just to tell people the band isn’t good
